Suddenly, with the laughter of thirsting gods still echoing in your ears, you find yourself on Holy Terra, 38 000 years in the future!
How do you survive?

Pretend to be a pilgrim, visit some shrines, hope they have food, then go from there.

Given the long-term threat of the Tyranids, to say nothing of the Necrons, Orks and Chaos, why don't the Eldar and Imperium put their differences aside and form an alliance?
Or hell, even include the Tau?
Battling over the shitty little planets and sectors they stay at each others' throats for seems suicidal in the face of multiple Tyranid hive fleets bearing down on the galaxy.

Long history of mutual aggression.
Xenophobia on both ends, although one's out of declared superiority and the other's more pure anti-alien zealotry.
The Eldar ain't saints and suffer not the alien to live.
Maybe the Nids will change it, fuck it, in the face of the nids i feel like they could maybe even convince the Orks to go after the "stabby gitz", but that's then and this is now.

Generally, the Eldar believe the Humans are them in reverse, where the Eldar gods had a steady incline to a fast death, to the GEoM having a massive start and now a slow decay. They're more or less thinking along the lines that Humans are (relatively) soon to end, and that they'll last longer on their own. They also think of the Tau and Humans as little more than meddlesome children.
Humans, on the other hand, have the exact opposite view, thinking they're soon to be rulers of the galaxy, and...

The cheekguards make Satsuki look kinda chubby there.
So, wha'ts /tg/ opinion on tabletop simulator?
Like it, Hate it? Better options avalaible?

Without TTS I couldn't ever have played KDM or Cthulhu wars. It also helps if you want to get into reviewing games on a budget. This has been the best way to try before you buy for me and play old games that are out of print. The downsides are the learning curve and some games are inferior without the physicality.
>>47513263
I'd also add that it's tough to get to play more obscure stuff, because the casual player doesn't want to play a 2-3 hour games.
Finding someone to play Tikal was hard, I'll tell you that much.
>>47512772
Has anyone tried 40k on it? I know there were some mods that ripped DoW models for pieces, but that's about it.
You have put in creative charge of the next Magic block. The remit you have been given is to come up with a new plane that has not been previously represented in M:tG and a general overview of what the setting is "about" (i.e Arthurian knights, tomb-delving etc) and what each of the colours look like on this plane, how they are represented in different factions or races.
What do you do?
>>47512019
A world where the pure Empire of Man (White) constantly mans a wall against the subhumans.
>>47512059
Its name: Trumpvania.
The most generic fantasy world ever. Knights fighting dragons, goblins, zombies, etc. Mostly creatures, a few equipments (equippable only to humans), some tribal instants/sorceries (that can only be cast if you have an appropriately-typed creature), no enchantments, no magic. No races other than humans and the 4-6 monster types. No multicolored cards. Avaricious Dragon and Fiendslayer Paladin are the duel deck cover cards.
Imagine how fun the drafts would be.
>You are one of three characters: Samson, a spoiled bard, Dyrus, an axe-wielding rebel's son, or Rene, an orphan adopted by a high-ranking Director of an ominous empire, now a prepromoted archer-lancer. POV will rotate between them on a thread-by-thread basis, with a HIGHLY unlikely chance that someone else might someday take a chapter.
>These protagonists' motivations and goals will very likely come into conflict with one another's.

"My, my, it's been awhile," Marduk remarks at the sight of Dyrus and Belle. "I didn't realize you two were acquainted. Small world, huh?"
"...hello, Marduk." Belle responds, rather tersely.
"Hear you two were around Rene awhile," the eldest wyvern-riding sibling says. "She mad at me?"
"Enough to lash out at Omar a little," Dyrus responds.
"I see..." Marduk shuts his eyes. "Understandable after I literally put a spear in her back, I guess... No turning back now, though....

>A. Talk to a party member (Fabrice)
>>47512061
You seek out Fabrice, figuring you could stand to either brainstorm or act as a sounding board for his ideas, whichever works out.

"Ah, Samson," he says, "hold a moment, I just need to reapply my face... I said don't come in!" He glares, in the midst of applying something or another before a hand-mirror. At a table below him is a map of the Coastal region at large, coupled with one of the Briggid subregion. Tiny flags, pins, markings made in some sort of makeup or another...
"Relax, man, I've seen you in prison locked away from all your pretty-making things," you say, a bit snappier than you might have intended. "Now, I'm here to talk longterm plans, not bother you about-" Your eyes widen as you finally become aware of the aroma of some very strong perfume. "Gods, man, these ships have windows!"
"Sorry, sorry... I did warn you not to just barge in when I'm not yet beautiful."
"Can we move past this now? Alright, cool, what're you puzzling out here?"
"Merely weighing out the pros and cons of this little... Venture you've set us on. Setting my biases for getting onto the mainland quickly, we need to anticipate just how long Oswald Dory intends to hold his hostage. Certainly, the earliest will be the signing of Hera's death warrant, but he may improvise any number of reasons to prolong Lazare's involuntary visit..."

Sup /tg/, I am in the process of creating demographics for my world and I need a little help, I have been looking into the % of the population which can be raised as a campaign army, I have seen a few numbers thrown around from 1% to 10% generally.
What percentage of the army is generally mounted knights?
How big are mercenary companies?
How many soldiers in a force will be trained and how many will be farmers with a spear?
>>47511465
That REALLY depends on the culture, society, their wealth, and the fertility of their land.
What you should ultimately be looking at is professional warriors, and how many men are required to serve their lords in militias.
>>47511511
Thats what I have been trying to find, but lots of different sources differ vastly, what do you use in your games as a general rule?
>>47511536
Go by the fluff and what works for the narrative you're trying to tell.
What does /tg/ think of 0AD?
Also /tg/ approved vidya general.

What is this?

looks like Age of Empires with better graphicsWololooo
I was given a challenge to makes this card work in Modern but nothing really seems good enough to make him worth using. Aristocrat lists would rather be using CoCo.
I have founs a few cards that work well with it though.

B/W allies deck with lots of ETB effects on low cost creatures? Suicide attack with them, opponent can either take the damage, or block them and have to decide if he wants to deal with their ETB effects next turn or pay the 3 life so they don't come back?
>>47511213
Try it in Martyr Proc.
>Enchanted liver
Nah, just a dwarf.
>>47511198
What would you even need such a thing for?

I chuckled way to much upon seeing these words and that picture...

Wasn't someone trying to translate this? Whatever happened to that?Japanese TRPG thread.
>>47510778
They noticed how shitty japanese trpgs are and moved on to Pathfinder, a real trpg.
No clue, but I've been itching to read it ever since I heard about it through Quick Start!
>>47510778
There's a work in progress (see pdf attached).
Another Malal thread. This time, instead of 40K let's make stats for Warhammer Fantasy which /tg/ has been neglecting so far. My suggestions for representing Malal in the Warriors of Chaos are:
>Mark of Malal grants Killing Blow. 2pts per model, 10pts for characters.
>Daemon of Malal grants re-rolls of all To Hit rolls of 1 and Hatred (Daemons). 10pts for a Daemon Prince.
>Forsaken of Malal has Fight in Extra Ranks (2pts each)
>Spawn of Malal has...
